minimalist crossover that is hand tuned to within .5 db per octave , and phase

I don't know the seller but this is an awesome deal for these speakers.  For the money, I don't think you can find better sounding speakers.  Cool looking as we'll.  Best of luck with the sale.

I am the designer of these speakers. 

The voicing is very neutral IMHO, and the woofers are quite transparent in the way that we hear from good tweeters.  The bass is quite "snappy" too, because there is no crossover other than that with the tweeter.  Distortion is kept low by use of two large 3" vents that fire out the back.  The crossover is extremely phase coherent, which means that the actual cross point is completely undetectable.  This also contributes to a deeper and more precise sound stage and sense of "bloom".

The drivers are different than those used in the Bamberg S2tmm, but they are truly equivalent in grade and performance.  Voicing is pretty identical.  Note that all BESL designs are know for a rich tonal balance, and yet open and neutral.  I am also known in the industry as a crossover guru, and so all my designs exhibit very high caliber engineering. 

Paul is selling these at a terrific price.   

Here are a few more photos of these speakers.  Also shown are the concept and cover sheets for the CAD print package.

I received the Bamberg speakers today. Paul packed these very well and they made the trip across country without damage. The speakers are larger than what the pictures show and even with measurements, the size seems larger. The cabinets are some of the best fit and finish work I have seen and they are truly beautiful to admire.

The sound from the first note caught my attention. The sound stage is huge, detailed and the best imaging I have heard since monitors. The speakers are quick and extended top to bottom. The bass goes way lower than expected, enough to rattle the fireplace, so I will be fixing the fireplace and working on room treatments in the near future. I must say I feel privileged to have found and purchased the Bamberg speakers. Paul sold these way too cheap and I appreciate the deal I got. No, they are not for sale.

Thank you. The speakers became more refined with a few hours on them and the caps charged up. They are never bright, but very extended, huge sound stage, incredible bass and mid range. These are very impressive and the best speakers I have owned. Placement is very easy.
